Custom Category Content

Hi,

Been messing about with the ShopWindow software now, seems pretty good so far.

I would like to be able to customise the categories list on the left-hand side. I have already changed the category number, but I'd like to put my own links in there too (perhaps below the automated categories?)

The links would then perform a search of the website, e.g. "nokia 3200" as the list of mobile phone categories is not very good as it doesn't break down into manufacturer, as I would also like.

Any help on this customisation would be appreciated! :)

See this thread : http://www.shopwindowforum.com/showthread.php?t=67&highlight=hard code

It covers a couple of aspects of simple customisation to hard code links.

Thanks for that link, it has some good ideas though I was looking for a way to position a new menu underneath the current menu on the left of the screen.

This was it would be completely seperate from the one on top, and won't get mixed up with custom category links that the system generates (e.g. Prepay / Contract) on different pages.

It seems like it would be as simple as copying and pasting the left menu underneath it, though I'm not sure how this would work?

The ability to place it on the right of the screen would also be welcome, I've read elsewhere on the forum about adding a banner to the right of the screen but not to having another menu like on the left.
